Subject:
cost effectiveness; psychology; questionnaires; recreation; social support; Antarctic region
Abstract:
... Stressors in Isolated, Confined, Extreme environments (ICE environments) pose important challenges to psychological adaptation, whose assessment is therefore an important research issue. This article describes a standardized instrument, the ICE-Q, to help evaluate individual differences in adaptation to ICE environments.Several groups (n = 140), each spending one year in sub-Antarctic or Antarctic ...

ISSN:
0272-4944
Subject:
ecological restoration; people; perceptions (cognitive)
Abstract:
... Natural environments are typically judged to be more restorative than built environments in terms of fostering recovery from stress or buffering against resource depletion. But this comparison tends to be categorical – nature versus built environments – and consequently, questions remain regarding the restorative potential of environments that do not fit into these categories. Furthermore, individ ...

amygdala; chronic exposure; cortex; emotions; systematic review; urban areas
Abstract:
... This review explores how different environments affect brain activity and associated mood response. MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, PsychInfo and EMBASE were searched for peer-reviewed literature published prior to February 2019. 26 sources were included and divided into either a laboratory (n = 17) or naturalistic (n = 9) design. Most (n = 16) compared natural environments against urban/non-natu ...

Subject:
anxiety; females; refugees; research projects; New Zealand
Abstract:
... Important people-place relationships are often severed during forced displacement, leading many refugees to feel a sense of loss, grief, and disorientation which can negatively impact upon their wellbeing and hinder their resettlement in a new country. Whilst there is an extensive body of literature concerning the negative impact that displacement can have on the lives of individuals and diasporic ...

Subject:
climate change; cognition; experimental design; misinformation
Abstract:
... The present research bridged the relationship between cognitive complexity and belief in anthropogenic climate change and tested the differential effectiveness of two argument types. In the first two studies (with 817 and 226 participants, respectively) we found that participants with lower levels of cognitive complexity were less likely to believe in anthropogenic climate change than those with h ...

Subject:
activists; air pollution; cluster analysis; education; gender; psychology; respiratory tract diseases; risk perception; smoking (habit); surveys; China
Abstract:
... Prior studies of public behavioral responses to air pollution mostly treat respondents as a homogenous group, an assumption that limits our ability to design tailored messages to mobilize actions. This paper employs segmentation techniques to examine the heterogeneity of individuals’ adaptive and mitigation behaviors in response to air pollution. We administered a survey in Beijing and obtained a ...

7. Do people who feel connected to nature do more to protect it? A meta-analysis

Author:
Mackay, Caroline M.L.; Schmitt, Michael T.

Journal of environmental psychology 2019 v.65 pp. 101323
ISSN:
0272-4944
Subject:
demography; meta-analysis; psychology
Abstract:
... Using meta-analysis, we examined whether there is evidence consistent with the idea that a subjective sense of “connection to nature” promotes pro-environmental behaviour (PEB; Mayer & Frantz, 2004; Nisbet, Zelenski, & Murphy, 2009). Analysis of correlational data (k = 75) provided compelling evidence for a strong and robust association between nature connection and PEB (r = 0.37). Nature connecti ...

Subject:
attitudes and opinions; emotions; environment; humans; people
Abstract:
... Moral elevation is a self-transcendent positive emotion arising from appraisals of moral excellence, which induces feelings of connectedness to other humans. However, no previous published research has investigated whether the effects of moral elevation extend to facilitate feelings of connection with the natural world. In two studies (Ns = 96 and 232), feelings of connectedness to nature were hig ...

Abstract:
... Successful weight loss requires individuals to focus on distant health gains while sacrificing immediate culinary pleasures. Time discounting refers to the tendency to discount larger future gains in favor of smaller immediate rewards. Hence, lower discounting should lead to better dietary practices and healthier dietary choices. Prior research has shown that exposure to natural versus urban lands ...

Subject:
cognition; emotions; philopatry; social factors
Abstract:
... Place attachment – the cognitive-emotional bond people have to specific places – is associated with various psychological outcomes and behaviors. While it is well-established that both important social as well as physical features determine how strongly people attach to a place, it is largely unexplored how the loss of such features causally affects place attachment. In two online experiments (N1  ...

In this cross-sectional analysis of n = 38,361 responses to the 2010–2011 Gulf States Population Survey, we assessed the association of direct oil contact with depression severity following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and modification by self-mastery, emotio ...

Abstract:
... Psychological essentialism is a widely studied concept within the social sciences, including the field of psychology. However, this concept has not been empirically explored when applied to perception of places.

anxiety; employment; environmental factors; factories; manufacturing; mental health; occupational health and safety; regression analysis; suicide; surveys; violence; China
Abstract:
... Stress and anxiety are pervasive mental health problems in “sweatshop” manufacturing factories, leading to depression, violence, and suicide. Previous studies ascribed workers’ mental health problems to social-demographic and employment factors. Few have explored whether, and to what extent, the outdoor environment impacts workers’ stress and anxiety status. Without this understanding, we lose the ...

Subject:
adults; aesthetics; children; cognition; parents
Abstract:
... Adults demonstrate aesthetic preferences for natural environments over urban ones. This preference has influenced theories like Biophilia to explain why nature is beneficial. While both adults and children show cognitive and affective benefits after nature exposure, it is unknown whether children demonstrate nature preferences. In the current study, 4-to-11-year-old children and their parents rate ...
